Okay, I don't think I am actually going to die.

I just ate 1/2 of pita, and upon looking at the second 1/2, discovered it is moldy.

I searched online a little, but just wondering what (if any) gastrointestinal side effects I may be seeing and for how long.

Most of all, yuck.

    You're fine. People eat blue cheese all the time. What do you think the blue is?

    Think of it this way, you just received a very cheap dose of penicillin...in a manner of speaking. =)

    you'll be a-okay

    I've unfortunately done it before.... so besides any psychologically induced nausea, no worries:)

    The mold that grows on bread is used to make penicillin. You didn't even eat the moldy part. You should be fine. Just wondering though... didn't it taste a little funny?

    You're definitely going to die. Maybe not for 75 years, but death is a certainty.

    Only if it had fructose syrup on it. That stuff is poison. I know because i saw it on the internet.

    Sorry, you are done for.

    No, actually, I ate a whole piece of green bread without realizing it and had no effects at all. I wouldn't expect it to harm you.
